There are allegations that men of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have recovered funds valued at N1.2m from the Abuja home of ex-Petroleum Minister, Deziani Allison-Madueke.

The Vanguard Newspaper reported that the Abuja home of the ex-petroleum minister, who was recently arrested and released for money laundering allegations, was raided by the men of the EFCC and yielded the recovery of cash running into several millions of Naira.

According to sources close to the operation, Deziani's palatial mansion on Frederick Chiluba Street, Asokoro, Abuja was reported to have produced a total of N1.2m in cash after the raid was made possible by some of the former security aides of the embattled former minister.

Though reports say the ex-minister had not been sighted near the palatial home since leaving office in May 2015 as she had been in the United Kingdom, it was also gathered that the raid was aimed at recovering vital documents needed to prosecute Deziani after her arrest in the UK.
